‏ 1 Kings 12:26-27

v. 26-27: Jeroboam became afraid that the people would return to Rehoboam if they continued to go to Jerusalem to worship at the temple (1 Kings 12:26-27 a). He doubted God’s promise to establish his kingdom if he remained faithful (1 Kings 11:38 b). This lack of trust led Jeroboam to take matters into his own hands.
